Preface
To the Cook, the Baker, and All the Food
Makers
This collection of recipes was gathered specially
for American Indians who get commodity foods
from the Food Distribution Program on Indian
Reservations. American Indians and people who
work with them from all over the country sent us
some great recipes for using United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA) commodity
foods. A list of contributors is inside the back
cover. From the recipes we received, we picked the
ones for this book that:
• taste good
• use commodities for at least half of the
ingredients
• use few pots and pans
• are quick and easy to make
All of the recipes have been tested with commodity
ingredients. After each recipe was made, it was
taste-tested by American Indians from several
different tribes.
This is not a diet recipe book. However, many
recipes were changed to use less sugar, fat, and
salt than usual, but still taste good. As a result,
some of the recipe names changed too. The
USDA commodity foods used in each recipe are
typed in bold letters. The amount of calories,
carbohydrates, protein, fat, and sodium for one
serving is given at the end of each recipe. This
feature will help you to plan and serve healthy
meals. Make each recipe as it is in this recipe
book. If you change a recipe or the size of the
servings, the nuthent information will change too.
People who are on special diets and need to be
more careful about eating too much sugar, fat, or
salt should talk to their doctor, nutritionist, or
dietitian.
The meals you cook using these recipes and
commodity foods should be nutritious and taste
good. Some of the recipes are old and some are
new. But all of the recipes should be quick and
easy to do.
"May the warm winds of heaven
Blow softly on your house
May the Great Spirit
Bless all who enter in."

Seven Ways To Eat for Better Health
Food alone cannot make you healthy. But good eating habits can help keep you and your family healthy.
There are seven ways to eat for better health. They all work together when you plan and cook meals to
keep balance, moderation, and variety in your diet. Follow the Seven Ways To Eat for Better Health listed
below:
1 . Eat a variety of foods.
No one food gives you all the nutrients you
need. It is important to eat many different kinds
of foods from every food group each day All
the food groups are listed in the chart on page
78.
2. Maintain desirable weight.
Being overweight can put stress on your body
and on the way it works. Being very overweight
also adds to your chances of getting some
diseases such as high blood pressure, heart
disease, common types of diabetes, and some
types of cancer.
4. Eat foods witti adequate starch and fiber.
Foods high in starch give you important
nutrients without too much fat or too many
calories. Fiber helps move food through the
digestive system.
5. Avoid too much sugar.
Sugary foods are often high in calories and low
in vitamins and minerals. Eating too much
sugar or too many sugary foods and sticky
sweets can lead to tooth decay
T 1 1 f 1
3. Avoid too much fat, saturated fat, and
cholesterol.
A diet high in fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol
may increase your blood cholesterol level. High
blood cholesterol levels can increase your
chances of getting heart disease. Diets high in
fat also tend to be high in calories. Too nfiany
calories can make you gain too much weight.
6. Avoid too much sodium (salt).
A lot of the sodium we eat comes from salt.
Too much sodium (salt) in the diet can be a
problem for people with high blood pressure, or
for people who have family members with high
blood pressure.
7. If you drink alcoholic beverages, do so in
moderation.
Alcoholic drinks are high in calories and low in
vitamins and minerals. Drinking too much
alcohol can lead to some types of liver disease
and cancer.
Plan Meals for Better Health
You can plan meals for better health. The helpful hints below put some of the Seven Ways To Eat for
Better Health into practice. They will help you keep balance, moderation, and variety in your diet.
Plan to Eat a Variety of Foods
■ Every food has different kinds and amounts
of nutrients, and other things we need to live
and grow. But no one food has all of them
together.
■ Your daily food choices should have foods
from all the food groups. Study the food
groups in the Pattern for Daily Food Choices
chart on page 78. Commodity foods are in all
the food groups.
■ Plan your daily food choices to include all
kinds of foods. Choose all kinds of foods
within each food group. Each day choose at
least the lower number of servings from each
food group in the Pattern for Daily Food
Choices chart.
Eat Foods with Adequate Starch and Fiber
■ Foods with fiber help all the food you eat to
move through your body.
■ You get fiber from foods with skins and seeds
such as beans, berries, whole-grain cereals,
cucumbers, potatoes, and squash, and foods
made with whole-grain flour.
■ Use half all-purpose flour and half whole-
wheat flour in recipes when you bake.
■ Some starchy foods are low in fat, such as
beans, bread, cereals, corn, macaroni,
potatoes, spaghetti, and rice. Serving butter,
other fats, or cream sauces with them also
adds fat and calories.
r c t t E~: r f t- f- i- e r r f i- r r r r r r r r r
Tl T 1 T 1 1 1 ^ H 1 H H
Maintain Desirable Weight
■ The key to staying at the right weight is
eating the right number of calories for the
energy you use up through physical activity
each day.
■ A "serving" has a different meaning to
everyone. Smaller servings have less calories
than larger servings of the same food. People
who need fewer calories need to eat smaller
servings.
■ Foods with a lot of fat, oil, or sugar and
alcoholic drinks can give you extra calories
you may not want or need.
If You Drink Alcoholic Beverages, Do So in
Moderation
■ Alcohol adds calories to your diet. Drinking
too much alcohol can cause you to gain
weight.
■ Drinking too much alcohol can also lead to
some types of liver disease and cancer.
■ Pregnant women who drink alcohol may harm
their unborn baby.
Cook For Better Health
You can cook for better health. The recipes in this book have already had some of the sugar, fat, and salt
taken out. The helpful hints below tell you how it was done. Try these hints yourself when you cook and
eat at home. The hints below put some of the Seven Ways To Eat for Better Health listed on page 72 into
practice.
Before You Cook
■ Drain canned vegetables. Throw away the
liquid. It has extra sodium (salt) in it. To get
rid of more salt, rinse the vegetables under
running water.
■ Drain canned fruits. Throw away the syrup. It
has extra sugar in it. To get rid of more sugar,
rinse the fruit under running water.
■ Grease baking pans with oil instead of
shortening. The oil is less saturated than
shortening, which makes it better for you.
rr f r f r d [I CF IT rF (7 rP IT rF
When You Cook
■ Cut down on the sugar used in recipes. You
can leave out some of the sugar in many
muffin, cookie, and cake recipes.
■ Use herbs and spices to flavor food, instead
of salt.
■ Cook pasta and rice without adding salt to
the water. The salt from other foods in the
recipe or meal can be enough.
■ Bake, broil, roast, or steam foods instead of
frying them. These ways of cooking food do
not use fat or oil.
■ Use oil instead of shortening if you have to
fry foods. Oil is less saturated than shortening.
rF re (i u (1 1^ \i n [u f
■ Chill a can of meat before you open it so the
fat gets hard. The fat will be easy to see after
you open the can. Take off the fat and use
just the meat and juices.
or
■ Drain the juices from canned meat that is at
room temperature. Throw away the juices. At
room temperature when the fat is soft, it is
not easy to remove fat from the juices. To
rinse off extra fat, rinse the meat with hot
water.
««««««««««« I
■ Reduce the amount of salt or leave it out of
recipes that use cheese, canned foods, and
food flavorings like Worcestershire or soy
sauce. These foods already have a lot of salt
in them.
When You Eat
■ Put only half the usual amount of sugar,
syrups, jams, or spreads on food.
■ Remove the salt shaker from the table. Flavor
food with spices instead of salt when you
cook.
■ Do not put the butter or margarine on the
table.
This chart shows a basic pattern for making healthy food choices every day. It shows you six different food
groups to choose from. It also gives the number of servings to eat and examples of a serving size. Plan
your daily meals to have at least the lower number of servings from each food group. Smaller serving sizes
are best for children and some adults who need fewer calories than other people.
Look closely. You will see that all your commodity foods fit into one or another of the food groups.

eating different combinations of food can be a part of a good eating pattern.
The key to a good eating pattern is balance. Balance your choice of foods. If you serve foods that are
higher in fat, sugar, or salt, try to find others to serve that are lower in fat, sugar, or salt.
